Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a personal injury lawsuit in New York?
In New York, the statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is three years from the date of the accident. For claims against a government entity, you must file a notice of claim within 90 days. Missing these deadlines can bar you from recovering compensation.
How does New York no-fault insurance affect my car accident claim?
New York is a no-fault state, meaning your own insurance pays for medical expenses and lost wages up to a limit, regardless of who caused the accident. However, you can still sue the at-fault driver for pain and suffering if your injuries meet a serious injury threshold defined by state law.
What types of cases do personal injury lawyers in Scarsdale handle?
Scarsdale personal injury lawyers handle car accidents, slip and falls, medical malpractice, dog bites, and construction accidents. They also handle wrongful death claims and cases involving defective products. Each case type has specific legal requirements under New York law.
